Actually he was fairly good in Cleveland last year. This year, I know Henne is terrible in the red zone, but it seems like the offense is much better than last years. I could imagine Daboll getting a shot at the HC if Sparano was let go. But still, ultimately I see Fisher being the next coach.

Nooo thanks. Believe I will pass on Daball being the next HC. Fisher is a way better option. I'm hoping for either Gruden, Cowher or Fisher to be the next coach. This team needs an experienced, proven guy to come in here and turn this team around and help sell tickets.

LMAO this is just hilarious and down right sad now. Dolphins have reached out to Garrard and Delhomme but so far both has turned us down. Nobody wants to come to this mess. Not even one of the worst QB's on the market.

I would love to see us get Cowher, I think he's the best coach available with Fisher being a close second. I'm not really a big fan of Gruden but he'd definitely be an upgrade on Sparano.

The biggest thing though is cheering for 0-16, I want Luck. This team is going nowhere so why win 4 or 5 games and get stuck with Landry Jones? It still burns me that we could have had Drew Brees twice, we're still trying to replace Marino 12 years later.

Idk who I want honestly. I liked Brian Schottenheimer and Russ Grimm as head coaching candidates back when we hired the trifecta and both are still looking for a head gig but at the same time, neither have done much of anything to help their stock, in fact both have gone backwards.

I like Cowher a lot and would definitely welcome him. Also not the biggest Gruden fan. Definitely don't like Billick even though it seems many still like him. A lesser known guy that I like is Pete Carmichael, New Orleans' offensive coordinator.

Yeah, thats a guy I think should come in for an interview(when the HC interview process has begun) to pick his brains and see what he's all about. Only problem with him is that he never called plays before up to my knowledge.

Gruden and Luck sure would be an epic duo together. Ahhh a man can dream.

Anyway, here's some interesting news.....

So Ross is apparently planning ways to make sure the future isn’t spent in the same AFC East cellar where the team currently resides. And that means needing a plan for beyond 2011.
The limited portions of the plan sources have shared with The Miami Herald would go into effect as early as January if the team doesn’t turn things around. And the known parts of the plan are as simple as this:
Ross wants a franchise quarterback at the helm in 2012. He is said to be committed to veer away from any attempt that would add a “caretaker” quarterback as a potential starter. He is said to be tired of watching the Dolphins field backups disguised as starters.

Quote:

He wants his football people to find a quarterback that can compete either immediately or eventually on the same level as the NFL’s elite quarterbacks.
Ross is apparently so committed to doing this that the source confirmed it was the owner himself who told Jeff Ireland to shut down the attempt to add Kyle Orton in the summer when the general manager was still trying to trade for the Denver quarterback.
“Orton is a nice quarterback,” the source said. “But he’s not a franchise quarterback, and we weren’t going to pay him like one when he isn’t one.”
It doesn’t stop there. Ross is so focused on getting his team a franchise quarterback that he has told friends, much as losses pain him in the short-term, he’s aware they offer long-term gain because they put Miami in better position to pick Stanford quarterback Andrew Luck in the next draft.
So who is going to pick and coach the franchise quarterback Ross covets?
Sources close to Ross said the owner is open to either hiring a superstar head coach who would have final say over all of football operations or hiring a football czar type who would hire a coach and either hire a general manager or serve as the GM while having final say over all personnel moves.

Quote:

It’s impossible to predict which direction the Dolphins will be able to go. But this much is possible to predict:
Ross intends to hire a star.
If he hires a coach, his plan is to hire a proven name — someone such as Bill Cowher, Jeff Fisher, Jon Gruden or someone else who might be available. That coach will have final say over all football matters. He would pick his GM and have final say over everyone in football operations.

I love the sounds of that but I would also like an elite owner to go along with an elite QB and an elite Head Coach. However, this might be the best thing Ross has done for the team since he's been in charge. I think it's obvious that the team has tuned out Sparano and he needs to go, but it's pointless to fire him now and bring in somebody else because that plan very easily could backfire. The team rallies around the new coach, plays with newfound intensity and wins a couple of games and then we're out of the Suck For Luck race. Keeping Tony for the remainder of the season is IMO the best way for us to win that top pick then as soon as January rolls around, Tony's gone, new coach is in and Luck is as good as our's!

Another one bites the dust. St. Louis finally gets a win. Still hoping Peyton comes back for the final 4 games or so and they get 2-3 wins. Ideal situation for me would be that Indy and Jax split their two games, Indy beats Ten at home and we beat Washington. I don't want to go defeated but in that scenario, we'd get only one win while everyone else got to two (assuming StL and Ari pick up some wins in conference play which would be shocking if they didn't as both of their schedules get MUCH easier the rest of the way).
